Stats & Training
The stat budget goes to damage. Speed and Attack carry the offense, Sp. Atk doesn't even come close. A Rabbit Pokemon on a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve, worth 2 Speed EVs per KO.
Its thick and fluffy fur protects it from the cold and enables it to use hotter fire moves.
It kicks berries right off the branches of trees and then juggles them with its feet, practicing its footwork.

Raboot Guide
Raboot is meant to evolve into Cinderace. At 420 BST, the stats aren't there for competitive play yet. Pre-evolution Pokemon rarely hold up against fully evolved threats.
Libero is what you want on Raboot. Every competitive set worth running is built with that ability in mind. The alternatives (Blaze) work on paper but Libero is what makes Raboot worth using.
In Scarlet & Violet, Libero is the hidden ability. It libero changes the Pokémon's type to that of its previously used attack. Worth hunting for if you want Raboot to compete at a higher level.
Game Availability
Raboot joined the series in Sword & Shield and has been available in 2 titles so far. With 3 generations of appearances, it's established itself despite the later start.
